Faber-Castell Oil Colors, Cardboard Wallet, 20 ml Tubes, Buttery Consistency, Fast Drying, Easy to Blend, Ideal for Oil Painting & Crafts – Set of 12 Colors

These colors are formulated for primed canvas, panels, and oil paper, giving you versatile options for traditional oil painting and craft projects.

The set contains 12 essential oil color shades in 20 ml tubes, organized in a portable wallet for convenient on-the-go sessions.

The formulation provides a manageable open time that lets you blend and glaze before the paint begins to set. Drying is gradual and depends on layer thickness, surface, and environment; expect longer times in cooler or more humid conditions.

Start with thin washes and progressively layer. Clean brushes between color shifts, use light pressure for smooth transitions, and allow each glaze to dry before adding another layer to maintain control over hue and value shifts.

Keep the tubes capped and stored upright in the wallet or a cool, dry place away from direct heat or sunlight to prevent pigment settling and pigment loss over time.

As with standard oil colors, work in a well-ventilated area and avoid ingestion. Wash hands after painting and consider gloves if you have sensitive skin. Keep out of reach of young children and pets and follow the safety instructions on pigment labels.

Wipe excess paint with a rag, then use a brush cleaner or appropriate solvent as needed. Wash brushes with mild soap and water after removing solvent; never flush solvents down the drain. Store brushes flat or upright to maintain bristle shape.

This wallet-set offers portability, a well-balanced mix of essential shades, and reliable pigmentation designed for easy blending. Other sets may offer more colors or different tube sizes; consider your project needs, space, and budget when choosing between sets.

Yes, you can extend your palette with additional Faber-Castell oil colors or compatible hues available on Fepy. When expanding, aim for a balanced color selection to maintain easy blending and color harmony.

They’re well-suited for oil painting on canvas, panels, and oil paper, as well as crafts that benefit from smooth blending and rich pigment. Ideal for portraits, landscapes, still lifes, and mixed-media projects where a buttery paint and strong tinting are advantageous.

Allow the painting to dry thoroughly, then consider a compatible varnish to protect the surface and enhance color longevity. Use varnishes appropriate for oil works and follow the product instructions for best results.
